We are living in exciting times!
For a while I thought the transition from an oil-based, debt driven economy towards a new, more sustainable economy would require an implosion of the current system. But since I discovered Steemit I feel more optimistic about this.
It feels that all the building blocks are already in place.
Bitcoin and block chain raised awareness and installed a sense of “want” in the average Joe. And those not on Facebook are becoming a rare species. Combine these two factors and you have the recipe for a new economy.
With robotics, self-driving cars and trucks, artificial intelligence and companies outsourcing work to their customers, it is expected that the 4 hour work week is not just a theory anymore. Having a life next to your job will be what is valued and sharing that life with your network is going to be valuable content.
It is clear to me that Social Media will be the engine that drives this new economy, but only now I am beginning to see how Steemit could be the oil lubricating that engine. What better way to use crypto currency than as a reward for something that most people are doing all the time. Sharing their ideas & experiences online.
As a content creator I am very excited about all this and I am happy to be sitting here, watching it all unfold and actively sharing this message with the people I know.
All those that have Steemit in their heart & crypto currency in their blood:
Share the story, proclaim that history is in the making, talk to everybody and resteem this message.
This story is so good, it needs to be told and it wants to be heard.
Check my blog!
Doing it! :-)
Of the three versions of this article you have posted, I like this one the best. Welcome to Steemit.
Haha yes thanks.
Let contribute that to my enthousiasm. My father always told me to think first and act after.
Hey man, a steem-it pro tip, as long as SBD > 1$ it really worth more to make 50/50 posts, as you get the SBD in a fixed 50% ratio and SP in an adjusted 50%. You can just buy SP later with SBD and power up.
Thank you. It's still all very new. All help is appreciated :-)
Yup, i found it the hard way as well, SBD was never intended to be > 1$
I will get there. Hooked already :-)
Hi @weddingdresses I'm optimist about blockchain system. However we should always remember the history of bitcoin that once upon time it was crash due by the hackers..so to be saved don't put golden egg in one busket. Otherwise the blockchain is another pokemon tsunami.
These wise words i will take to bed. Goodnight.
